Less than a week after former FBI Director James Comey was fired by President Donald Trump, Comey is reportedly ready to testify before the Senate Intelligence Committee, but he has one important condition that must be met if he is to testify: The hearing needs to be held in public.

The New York Times reported on Friday “a close associate” of Comey told reporters for the Times Comey is willing to testify, but he wants the hearing to be conducted in public. Comey rejected an invitation offered by the Senate Intelligence Committee on Friday to testify in a closed-door session.

The important info would not be revealed in a public hearing.

[Roccus]

Nonsense.
To think that Comey or any other of the assorted miscreants will take out Zer0, Clinton, Brennan etc. for the good of the nation is beyond fantasy. The only way they will do what is right and tell the truth is under the threat of the noose.

[liberalh8ter]

Don't capitulate. Comey has no right to make demands.

[Baynative]

Good, let's see him face serious questions under oath and on live coverage.

Let's see him explain why he granted immunity to Hillary staffers who were allowed to destroy laptops and cell phones and were never required to testify under oath themselves.

Let's see him explain why he didn't record Hillary's "private" deposition or put her under oath.

Let's see him explain why Loretta Lynch meeting with Bill Clinton was the deciding point in which he concluded there was nothing unlawful going on.

Let's see him explain why destruction of evidence is not a crime in his eyes.

Then, let's watch as the media spends a week spinning all his answers to humiliate the President.

We know that’s impossible. So much is classified.

[M-cubed]

In public so he can lie so the msm will run with it. A few days later, when the truth comes out, the msm will totally ignore it. <<

EXACTLY.....Same as the “request for more money for the investigation” story......COMPLETLY FALSE! but believed by the public because all the MSM ran with it 24/7s for days!!!

[M Kehoe]

Of course, Comey likes to “showboat. “

Who said that...?

5.56mm

[Roccus]

There isn’t a single, or for that matter, combination of Senators, R and/or D, who would ask those questions and/or the appropriate follow-ups.
That is the reason we find our nation in the mess it’s presently in.
Our nation is run by incompetents and criminals.

[Nifster]

This isn’t Comey saying anything...as usual unnamed associates

[txhurl]

Apparently you didn’t watch last Monday’s grilling of Yates and Clapper.

[TigersEye]

Will he then answer every question with “That’s classified information that I can’t disclose in public?”

[Georgia Girl 2]

One condition: Immunity.

[Lady Heron]

Comey can walk out his door any time he wants to and talk to a camera.

[KavMan]

IDIOT IS SHOWBOATING AGAIN!

[AndyJackson]

Stop the man’s showboating by issuing a subpoena for a closed hearing. Don’t give him a stage.

[AndyJackson]

two thirds of all Washington is dead set to get Trump

96% of DC voted against Trump, 92% for Hillary.

[Mears]

“96% of DC voted against Trump, 92% for Hillary. “

And “poof!”, the entire city will disappear under water because of global warming.

Sad. :-)

[blueyon]

“I guess Comey thinks he is still in charge.”

He just could be..............with the way the left work

[Kid Shelleen]

Didn't that back fire on him already? He laid out the evidence against Hillary and proclaimed that "no reasonable prosecutor' would bring a case against Clinton for emails". I don't think he has ever been held accountable about that remark. I am sure Mark Levin would let him come on his show and explain himself.

showboat...grandstander. Just like The Donald said
